An attempt to attack former Governor of Abia State, Dr. Orji Kalu was aborted, Tuesday, after after hoodlums laid siege for the APC senatorial candidate for Abia North, during his campaign in Abam village, Abia State.
According to IgbereTV, the criminals, who were armed with pump action and pistols, were prevented from striking by security details attached to Kalu.
Confirming the incident, an eye witness, who craved anonymity said;
“the boys came to the campaign ground with pump action hidden in their clothes but one of the security men attached to our boss was smart enough to the one of the hoodlums as they tried to jump down from a bike.”
“The security man alerted others and they went after the boys who abandoned their bike and ran into the forest
“The search for the miscreants is still on going as appropriate authorities have vowed to uncover the those behind the ugly act.
